Here we report the case of a 61 year-old-woman who underwent total gastrectomy for cardial adenocarcinoma. Few days later, she developed anastomotic dehiscence, endoscopically treated with stent-in-stent technique. Implementation of a partially covered self-expandable-metal-stent (SEMS) … Continue reading Tissue ablation for metal stent ingrowth with APC 3 using FiAPC® probe 2200A in forcedAPC mode
Radiation proctitis treated with preciseAPC® and pulsedAPC® mode
Radiation proctitis represents a condition that affects patients even years after radiotherapy for pelvic tumors. Chronic bleeding can lead to anemia, even with need for blood transfusion. The quality of life is affected by this … Continue reading Radiation proctitis treated with preciseAPC® and pulsedAPC® mode
Transbronchial cryobiopsy with rigid intubation for ILD diagnosis using flexible single-use cryoprobe and ERBECRYO® 2
To diagnose ILD, the flexible single-use cryoprobe with 1.7 mm was advanced into the periphery until the pleura and pulled back for 1cm. Fluoroscopy control was used for the positioning. After freezing for 5 seconds, … Continue reading Transbronchial cryobiopsy with rigid intubation for ILD diagnosis using flexible single-use cryoprobe and ERBECRYO® 2
Removal of a lung tumor with monopolar snare, flexible single-use cryoprobe and APC
The lung tumor was removed from its base with a monopolar snare and endoCUT Q (3-1-6). It was taken out of the lung with a flexible single-use cryoprobe 1.7 mm. More recanalization can be done … Continue reading Removal of a lung tumor with monopolar snare, flexible single-use cryoprobe and APC
Lateral neck dissection for metastatic thyroid carcinoma using BiClamp® 150 C and Bipolar Forceps PREMIUM
In head and neck surgery selective treatment of vessels is of paramount importance. Erbe bipolar technology therefore is used in ORs around the world for vessel sealing and coagulation. Dedicated VIO® 3 modes like softCOAG® … Continue reading Lateral neck dissection for metastatic thyroid carcinoma using BiClamp® 150 C and Bipolar Forceps PREMIUM
Pleuroscopic cryobiopsies using the flexible 1.7 mm single-use cryoprobe with ERBECRYO® 2
Case history: Breast-cancer related mastectomy on the right side several years ago. Situation: Female patient admitted for further examination of fluid accumulation in the right pleural space. The dissemination of breast cancer had to be … Continue reading Pleuroscopic cryobiopsies using the flexible 1.7 mm single-use cryoprobe with ERBECRYO® 2
EMR for lateral spreading tumors (LST) with HybridAPC margin ablation
In a piecemeal EMR, neoplastic tissue may remain at the edge or surface of the resection, which can be the cause of a local recurrence. Thermal ablation after EMR can reduce the recurrence rate by … Continue reading EMR for lateral spreading tumors (LST) with HybridAPC margin ablation
Treatment of angiodysplasia with FiAPC® probe 1500 A using preciseAPC® mode
Angiodysplasias in all sections of the gastrointestinal tract can be treated successfully using argon plasma coagulation. The aim is to avoid recurrent bleeding. Angiodysplasias often occur in the small intestine and can be treated with … Continue reading Treatment of angiodysplasia with FiAPC® probe 1500 A using preciseAPC® mode
Total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) for adenomyosis with BiClamp® LAP forceps and LAP BiSect Micro
Adenomyosis represents a disorder affecting more young women than previously suspected. As endometrial glands and stroma appear in the myometrium, the enlarged uterus can cause symptoms such as dysmenorrhea, infertility and pain. A negative effect … Continue reading Total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) for adenomyosis with BiClamp® LAP forceps and LAP BiSect Micro
Targeted therapy of radiation proctitis with FiAPC probe, APC 3 and VIO® 3 using the preciseAPC mode
Radiation proctitis represents a condition which can occur even years after radiotherapy for pelvic disease. Complications can severely affect life quality and are sometimes challenging for the endoscopist. Our FiAPC probes in combination with VIO® … Continue reading Targeted therapy of radiation proctitis with FiAPC probe, APC 3 and VIO® 3 using the preciseAPC mode
